  • That is a tricky question. IT isn’t just does the CEO know, but should the CEO have known. If you make a machine that injures people the courts ask should you have expected that.

    The first time someone uses a lawnmower the cut a hedge the companies and gets hurt can say “we never expected someone to be that stupid” - but we now know people do such stupid things and so if you make a lawn mower and someone uses it to cut a hedge the courts will ask why you didn’t stop them - the response is then we can’t think of how to stop them but look at the warnings we put on.

    When Grok was first used to make porn X can get by with “we didn’t think of that”. However this is now known. They now need to do more to stop it. there are a number of options. Best is fix Grok so it can’t do that; they could also just collect enough information on users that when it happens the police can arrest the person who instructed grok. There are a number of other options, if the court accepts them depends on if the tool is otherwise useful and if whatever they do reduces the amount of porn (or whatever evil) that gets through - perfection isn’t needed but it needs to get close.




  • Why are you typing anything in a grocery store? Type in the kitchen when you need to add something to the list, but in the store it should be just checking off the items as you put them in the cart. Maybe you have a good reason, but it feels like you are solving the wrong problem. [insert long rant about usability and human-machine interaction]

    If you really need a keyboards I agree bluetooth keyboards are chunky. I often use a 60% keyboard with my phone, but it is a lot larger than my fine despite being a small keyboard. There is no getting around the size of hands though, you can’t make a good tiny keyboard (even a 40% won’t fit in your pocket).

    Bambu has great marketing: they have given printers to a lot of well known makers who in turn now feature them on their YouTube and the like. If you just want a printer that prints standard stuff with standard work flows they are probably good. However they are in the long run likely to be expensive since they require their supplies (which are reportedly good, but expensive). If you want to print something and not think about the printer they are good enough. However if you want to hack a printer, save money, or experiment they are going to limit you.

    Everyone recommends Prusa for a reason: most of the things that make printing good and easy were developed by Prusa and then the others used the open source license to put their own name on it. Some of the others have done some innovation, but the major hard work was done by Prusa and he should be supported for that.
